Answer: A

Question 3

An organization implements IoT devices, such as smart thermostats and IP cameras, alongside traditional endpoints, like laptops and desktops. Which of the following best describes a primary security challenge unique to IoT devices compared to traditional endpoints?

Options :

A : IoT devices are protected by advanced encryption methods, unlike traditional endpoints.

B : IoT devices require user authentication for every operation, making them more secure than traditional endpoints.

C : IoT devices often lack direct update mechanisms, increasing their vulnerability to security exploits.

D : IoT devices are isolated from network traffic, eliminating risks from external threats.

Answer: C

Question 4

A cybersecurity analyst is investigating a suspected breach. The analysis reveals that attackers exploited a misconfigured cloud storage bucket to upload malicious scripts, which subsequently allowed them to gain unauthorized access to sensitive data. Which of the following best describes the exploitation method used in this scenario?

Options :

A : Phishing email containing a malicious link

B : Delivering a zero-day exploit to bypass endpoint defenses

C : Exploitation of a misconfigured cloud storage bucket

D : Establishing a Command and Control channel through malware

Answer: C

Question 5

An organization implements a new cloud-based collaboration platform. The SOC team notices a lack of visibility into activities on the platform, increasing the risk of data breaches. What should the SOC team prioritize to improve visibility in this context?

Options :

A : Use native security features of the collaboration platform, such as logging and monitoring APIs.

B : Increase the number of access controls to limit platform usage.

C : Rely on employee reports to detect suspicious activity on the platform.

D : Monitor only administrative accounts to save on resource usage.
